What a unique experience we had at the historic inn. We showed up in the middle of a heavy downpour and walked into a beautiful lobby with a fire going. They had lots of seating in the lobby, a puzzle and a chessboard to sit and relax. We enjoyed a glass of wine from the bar off the lobby and dinner at the restaurant. It was a fun place to stay and convenient for us as we were going to FallingWater the next day.

A very pleasant, if brief, stay. Charming ambience and terrific views all around. A great on-site restaurant. Spacious verandas for watching sunsets in an adirondack or rocking chair, perhaps with refreshment in hand. Our king-sized bed was very firm, and there was terrific water pressure for a nice shower (seemingly a rarity in modern hotels, from our personal experience). You can feel the history of the place, but you're never lacking for amenities that you'd expect from a nice modern establishment,

I was truly impressed by the historic significance of this resort. The amenities were excellent and made it easy to enjoy a full stay without ever needing to leave the property. The only drawback was the lack of accessibility; navigating the stairs to reach the upper floors or the lower levels was difficult. I would highly recommend adding an exterior ramp to improve access for all guests. For my next visit, I will be sure to request a room on the main floor wing to avoid the stairs.

Excellent older Hotel. Lobby and grounds are beautiful. The rooms reflect the age of the hotel in that they lack modern amenities like mini fridge, microwave, and coffee maker. Outlets are scarce. The climate control was loud but effective and didn't hear any outside noise. Restaurant was very nice as were the pools. Also there isn't an elevator so you mostly have to do stairs but we were on the highest floor and if we parked in the upper lot only about 10 steps. from the lobby it was over 30.

Really cool, old hotel. The staff were all friendly and helpful. Restaurant food was really good, and the bed was comfortable! The room was a little dated, and didn't have outlets on both sides of the bed, and I also wished it had a mini fridge and microwave, but overall it was an enjoyable stay and we'd go back!

The location was beautiful, and it is nice to have the historic property being used. Room was dated but very clean. Pool looked very clean, and breakfast in Mae’s was very good and convenient. My only complaint was the coffee in the urn at the front desk, maybe it was instant? It was undrinkable.

This is a very cool historic Inn with character and amenities. The staff are helpful and friendly. The amenities and common spaces make the place - historic and full of character. The two pools, outdoor hot tub, veranda with massive view, and lobby with fireplace ooze charm. We had a nice breakfast in the restaurant. The rooms are modest and not the “show” here - but you wouldn’t want to sit in your room anyway. We’ll be back!
